Primary syphilis presenting as balanitis.Int J STD AIDS. 2007 Jul; 18(7):497-8.IJ
Abstract
The classical lesion of primary syphilis is a solitary, indurated, painless chancre. Atypical presentations, such as herpetiform ulceration, are well recognized. However, there are few references in the medical literature to primary syphilis presenting as balanitis or balanoposthitis. We report two cases of primary syphilitic balanitis in homosexual men.
